Individual modern home with outstanding countryside views.

Description

Chapel View occupies a wonderful, elevated position on the ever desirable Upper Guildown Road with phenomenal far reaching views towards the south. This modern style property was built in 1982 and is in very good order throughout, the current owners have been in residence for over twenty seven years and this is very much a loved family home. Chapel View is a unique property with fantastic accommodation set over five floors and extends to approximately 1900 sq ft with an emphasis on light and space.

The lower ground floor comprises traditional style kitchen and three large reception rooms, a sitting room, a dining room and a family room which are all filled with natural light. There are five bedrooms set over four floors. Bedroom one and two both have en suite bathrooms and the family bathroom can be found on the second floor. A useful study is located on the first floor. On the lower ground floor is a cellar accessed via the garage, currently used for storage.

The gardens are a particular highlight and have been well tended over the years. The borders are well stocked with mature shrubs and plants providing an abundance of colour throughout the seasons. The terrace is the perfect spot to take in the breath taking views and enjoy al fresco dining in the summer. A gently sloping lawn leads to a fantastic area which was previously utilised as a tennis court. The gardens feel extremely private and are framed by specimen trees and mature hedging. Towards the bottom of the plot, there is a well-established kitchen garden, orchard and a Victorian glasshouse.

Chapel View has the benefit of a double garage and driveway parking to the front.
